The former San Siro favourite has decided to chime in on the power struggle at the Milan giants between long-time Chief Executive Adriano Galliani and Barbara Berlusconi, the daughter of President Silvio Berlusconi.

Galliani threatened to resign last week, apparently unhappy at comments by Barbara that the club needed a new philosophy, only to then agree to share his role with the latter.

"I think someone like Galliani deserves more respect for everything he has done and how in all these years he steered the club to positive results," Gattuso told Radio Radio.
